Yep, and I'll do my best to get this one back on its feet!

Anyway, besides that, I'm not sure how many people are still interested, so first I'll be trying to get a sense of that and finding any reserves if necessary. Then, [hopefully in a week's time], first games will be sent out!

Also, as a slight change, there will not be any 5 or 7 player games; if I happen to choose that, I'll simply pick again. [That's because as I'm obviously not premium, there won't be a way for me to fill out any empty spaces.] Hope nobody really minds with that slight altercation.

-reserved-

[dittoeevee8888]

Okay...so only 14 out of the 24 players are still interested; thus I'm going to need to get reserves. I realize that 10 reserves will be rather hard to get, so I'm going to aim for 2 to make it sixteen, to make it a rather wide variety of games to be played [2, 4 and 8], or 4 [18, so that 2, 3, 6 player games] or 6 for 20.

Nonetheless, if there are two by this Sat., that would be when I'd create the games. Otherwise, the games [should] start in a week.

As well, a minor rule change, I'm going to avoid the no spoils + standard setting; I hope nobody really minds, since I'd dislike to have to deal with any stalemates.

~ditto

[Faro]

count me in if you still need a reserve

[ga7]

You can count me back in =)

[magneto_acolyte]

I'll play or reserve if needed.

[dittoeevee8888]

Okay, so we have eighteen players since one replied, and three reserves. Not bad :]

Anyway, current player list:

ckyrias
DoomYoshi
earlybirdbrew
Faro
fodmaker
ga7
generalhead
Jay_Santos
magneto_acolyte
MattiWacklin
mcshanester29
mwaser
Nailer X
rmjw10
ShootAndMiss
tokle
Xtremejeep88
Zoki77

Anyway, so the game formats are either 2 player, 3 player or 6 player.

And...the second round settings:

Round 2
Players: 3
Type: Terminator
Troops: Manual
Order: Freestyle
Spoils: Flat Rate
Reinforcements: Adjacent
Fog: No

Games will be made and sent right now. Or in the next 10-ish minutes.

Scoreboard will also be updated to reflect current amount of players.

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

3 more games to go.

If they're still not done in a week, I'll consider creating the next round despite them not being done since all games have premium players involved.

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

2 more games to go!

Anyway, it's been a week, and the games in question seem to have no end in sight, thus I will create Round 3's games with the random settings.

I will not be updating the scoreboard until all games are completed. That might be a while, but I don't want to accidentally add [or forget] to add points; hope this causes no extra inconvenience on anyone's part.

Also, new rule regarding games that seem to be in stalemate: If a month after the games of the 10th round have finished [sans stalemates], there will be a new game created in the following settings:

Map: [same]
Type: Standard
Troops: Manual
Order: Sequential
Spoils: Nuclear
Reinforcements: Chained
Fog: No

_____

Anyway, on with Round 3! Settings:

Players: 2
Type: Standard
Troops: Manual
Order: Standard
Spoils: No Spoils
Reinforcements: Unlimited
Fog: No

Games should soon, no more than an hour [or so]!

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

So...all of Round 3 games are now done! Scoreboard should be updated soon reflecting the new points.

Also, as another note, I am temporarily replacing Jay_Santos until I can find another reserve to replace him/her. Hopefully, I'll find a reserve soon, but if not, I might end up playing in the whole tournament.

Anyway, Round 4 games should be sent out soon, after I get all the stuff sorted out.

Settings for this round:

Players: 6
Type: Standard
Troops: Manual
Order: Standard
Spoils: Escalating
Reinforcements: Adjacent
Fog: Yes

~ditto

Edit: I lied. Not all the games are done; there is one more left :] (but since all premium players, I'll still move on; I hope you don't mind!)

[dittoeevee8888]

Okay...all but one game is finished, and since it doesn't look like there's any end in sight, I'll be continuing. [Delay due to a mini-problem with a premium/freemium player, but since that's solved, onwards!]

Anyway...Round 5 games should be sent out soon, and here are the settings:

Players: 3
Type: Terminator
Troops: Automatic
Order: Freestyle
Spoils: Flat Rate
Reinforcements: Chained
Fog: Yes

Games will be created and sent out in the next 10-ish minutes :]

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

Games will be created and sent out sometime in the next 3-4 days [before the weekend is done & through] now that the last Round 5 game is done!

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

Settings for the Next Round:
Players: 3
Type: Terminator
Troops: Automatic
Order: Freestyle
Spoils: Escalating
Reinforcements: Adjacent
Fog: No

Scoreboard updated; games should be created & sent out in the next 10-15 minutes =D

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

So all but one game has finished for Round 6, and since they are all premium, I'll go ahead and continue with the next round.

Settings for Round 7:

Players: 3
Type: Terminator
Troops: Manual
Order: Sequential
Spoils: Nuclear
Reinforcements: Unlimited
Fog: Yes

Scoreboard will be updated soon, games will also be created & sent out soon, hopefully within 15-20 minutes :]

~ditto

[mcshanester29]

Thanks for all your hard work on this tourney!!!

[dittoeevee8888]

Thanks for all your hard work on this tourney!!!

No problem :]

And on another note, I'm starting Round 8 right now; two games are going, one seems almost done and the other is a bit farther from being done, but I've felt that the rest of the players have waited long enough...so I'm starting it. I hope nobody minds - feel free to message me if you do!

And...settings for Round 8:

Players: 2
Type: Standard
Troops: Manual
Order: Sequential
Spoils: Flat Rate
Reinforcements: Unlimited
Fog: No

Scoreboard is updated...games will be created & sent within the next 10 - 15 minutes.

~ditto

EDIT: Forgot to mention that when the random number of players are decided to move onto the final round, if there is a tie between players, a game will be played to determine the people moving on. For instance, if there are 5 people tied at 3 points, and only 2 of them can move on, a 5 player game will be played, and the last two remaining will move on.

[dittoeevee8888]

Due to the fact that earlybirdbrew has deadbeated out of the tournament, lowering the numbers to 17, I have decided to drop the tournament instead of trying to find reserves. [Last time I tried, I failed to get a reserve, thus I'm not going to try again...especially when I have the easier option of dropping out.] Thus, there are 16 players, and the options for the number of people per game are 2, 4 or 8.

The game options this time:

Players: 8
Type: Assassin
Troops: Manual
Order: Sequential
Spoils: Flat Rate
Reinforcements: Unlimited
Fog: No

Scoreboard will be updated, games will be created...all within the next half an hour =D

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

So both of Round 9 games have finished, thus I will move on to Round 10, the last round before the finals!

I'm kind of iffy on the month rule I gave before, because that means the finalists would have to wait around a month and a half for the games to finish...especially because the two games have started 4 months ago and 3 months ago respectively. I'm quite sure what I had in mind with the tie-break rule was if there was a stalemate in Round 10...

I'll be PM-ing affected players to see if they mind playing their tiebreaks during Round 10, but if they wish for me to stick with my original ruling, I'll have to live with that.

Anyway, settings:

Players: 2 [I guess we probably won't be needing a tiebreak in Round 10...]
Type: Standard
Troops: Manual
Order: Sequential
Spoils: Flat Rate
Reinforcements: Unlimited
Fog: Yes

I'll be updating scoreboard/sending games all within the next 30 minutes.

~ditto

[dittoeevee8888]

Most of Round 10's games have finished, tiebreaks have been sent out & have started.

I'll be updating the scoreboard after all of Round 10's games have finished; and the random number of people chosen will be determined after the tiebreaks finish, providing that they don't take forever. If they do, I'll choose the number, and if it involves the two games needing tiebreak, I will deal with it then.
